My friend Amy noticed that I throw a lot of Easter Eggs and other hidden things into my comics. She's right as can be. I toss a lot of things just to crack myself up. Sometimes it's the name of a character, sometimes it's something in the background. And it's very rarely blatant. Sometimes I corrupt the name enough, or have a bizarre enough connection that no one except me gets it.
Here may or may not be such a case. I wanted some people walking by in this panel. I was thinking of drawing a couple, initially, but recently one of my favorite shows, Psych, came back on the air. It's not a show for the ages, but it's as fun as can be, and has a catchy theme song that you can download here.
It may be hard to tell, as this was the first time I really attempted to do a caricature of people in my Love and Capes style, but you should be able to look and tell that the people here are pretty obviously inspired by Shawn and Gus from everyone's "fake psychic/real detective" TV show.
And, for those of you keeping track: Thom Zahler has 23 days remaining to draw the last 11 pages.
